TOEICテストパート1、2出るのはこれ！「音声の使い方とスクリプト

「音声の使い方とスクリプト」について
Part 2 では、問いかけ文を聞いて即座に内容を理解し、それに対する適切な応答を選ばなくてはなりません。
英語の知識に加えて瞬発力が試されるパートでもあります。問題の中には、質問に直接的な答えを返さず、ひ
ねりを効かせて答えた選択肢が正解になるものも多く出てきます。また、質問の形をしていない平叙文のつぶや
きに対し、何かを提案したり質問したり、さまざまな反応を返すことで正答となる場合もあります。
このような一問一答の正解のパターンを数多くインプットすると、みなさんの頭の中には英語の自然なやりとりの
データが蓄積されていくことになります。そして、テスト本番では、聞こえた選択肢にすぐに反応する感度を養う
ことができるのです。
このようなスキルを上げる練習素材として、本書の Part 2 に登場したすべての問題の「問いかけ文」と「正解
選択肢」のみを収録した音声をご用意しました。音声をダウンロードし、いつでも練習できる環境を作りましょ
う。復習のための素材なので、必ず本書の問題を解いてから、この音声を利用してください。
STEP 1 下準備
通常通り問題を解いたら解説を読み、正解の根拠を調べ、意味を確認する
意味がわからない音をひたすら耳に入れても、理解したことにはなりません。どんな問いかけをされて、相手は
どう応答しているのか、大まかな意味でいいので把握しておきましょう。
さあ、トレーニング開始です。ダウンロードした音声をご用意ください。
STEP 2 音をチェック
音声を再生しながら、スクリプトを黙読
意味がわかっても、文字と発音がずれていては、聞き取りに支障が出てしまいます。どの文字がどんな発音をさ
れているのか、文のアクセントはどこにあるのか、どの部分で声が高くなったり、リズムがゆっくりになったりす
るのか、しっかり確認しましょう。
STEP 3 リピート練習
音声を再生し、文ごとに止めて声に出してまねをする
聞いた音声を口に出してまねし、できるだけ忠実に再現してみましょう。再現するには、リズムや発音を注意深く
聞き取らなければいけません。こうしてリピートすることを前提に音声を聞くと、ただ流しっぱなしにしたときよ
りも音をよく聞くようになります。はじめはスクリプトを見ながら、慣れたらスクリプトを見ずにリピートしてみま
しょう。
STEP 4 応答の練習
問いかけ文が終わったところで音声を止め、自分で応答を言う
音声と自分が会話をしているつもりで、意味を意識しながら練習しましょう。応答をあらかじめ読んでおき、音
声を止めて自分が応答するときには、スクリプトを見ずに言ってみてください。少し難しいですが、何度か練習
をするうちに、スムーズに出てくるようになります。答えを言ったあとは、音声を続きから流して、それをリピー
トしましょう。
★応答練習のバリエーション
問いかけ文が終わったところで音声を止め、問いかけ文を 1 回リピートし、続けて応答文を自分で言ってくだ
さい。その後再び音声を流して応答文を聞き、またそれをリピートします。そうすることによって、1問1答の
やりとりを自力で再生することになります。
練習のパートナーがいる場合は、役割分担をしてセリフを読み合って練習すると臨場感が増します。意味を
考えながら、相手の目を見て
（直前までスクリプトを見ていたとしても）
、擬似的に会話をしてください。
STEP 5 シャドーイング
音声を再生し、聞いた音を自分の口から出す
ここまでくると、英語を聞いた瞬間に意味が浮かび、それに対する応答もすぐに口をついて出てくるようになって
きているはずです。ここで今一度、次の点を確認しましょう。発音がナレーターの音から離れていませんか。リ
ズムが崩れていませんか。スピードが落ちていませんか。それらをチェックするために、音声を再生しっぱなし
にして、耳から聞いた音をまねして口に出していきます。この練習方法は影のように音にくっついて音を再現して
いくので、
「シャドーイング」と呼ばれます。スクリプトを見ずに再現するのが理想ですが、それだと沈黙の時間
が多くなってしまうという場合は、最初の２∼３語が見える状態にしておくか、あるいは慣れるまでスクリプトを
読みながら練習してもよいでしょう。言えるようになってきたら、スクリプトを隠して練習してください。
STEP 6 仕上げに聞き取りチェック
練習した音声をじっくり聞く
自分で言おうとして何度も練習した英語の音声は、漠然と聞きっぱなしにした音声よりもかなり聞きやすくなっ
ているはずです。その成果を確認するために、スクリプトを見ず、かつ、声を出さずに音声をじっくり聞いてくだ
さい。ひとつひとつの問いかけと応答の意味が瞬時に理解できますか。1 週間ほど経ったころに、今度は CD
の音声を再生して、もともとの Part 2 問題を解いてみてください。初めて解いたときにさっぱりわからない音が
あったとしたら、その部分はだいぶ聞こえ方が違ってきているはずです。英語の音データがあなたの脳に追加さ
れ、瞬発力がワンランク上がったのです。
ステップごとに分けましたが、STEP 1 と STEP 2 の後は、自分が一番取り組みやすいところを選んで練習して
いただいてもかまいません。英語の音データが定着するには、一度練習しただけではなかなか足りません。一
回やって終わりなのではなく、継続して練習をすると効果的です。
